First EncounterI am a Jasper T。 Scott fan and enjoy all his books。 I will say that this book did start a little slow as far as action sequences， but it is laying out the story so you will know what is going on。 There were twists and turns in the story that were interesting and kept me wanting to know what happens next。There is first contact and then other aliens。There is the question posed to the scientists while experimenting on animals as to whether or not an alien would do the same to humans。 First EncounterI am a Jasper T。 Scott fan and enjoy all his books。 I will say that this book did start a little slow as far as action sequences， but it is laying out the story so you will know what is going on。 There were twists and turns in the story that were interesting and kept me wanting to know what happens next。There is first contact and then other aliens。There is the question posed to the scientists while experimenting on animals as to whether or not an alien would do the same to humans。There is more to this book than just a few characters。 It sets up reasons for a rebellion against the aliens。I enjoyed the book and recommend it。Occupied Earth -This book is better than the first one in the series。 Caption Cross， his family and friends are desperate to survive the occupation of the earth by the Kyra。 This book tells the harrowing journey he and his family take in order to be together and survive the hell on earth that the Kyra have produced。 All I can say about this book is: WOW！ I LOVED IT！ I can't wait to read what happens next。 As usual Jasper Scott has written a wonderful book that I would highly recommend。 It is GREAT！I look forward to reading the next books in the series。 。。。more
